    BMW Walnut Leather Restorer - UK Stockist?

    Yes, I’ve just heard back from them and been advised of the same. I’ll see if there is any fabric I can take from under seat to send them, if not will go down the same route as you. How did it turn out?

    BMW Walnut Leather Restorer - UK Stockist?

    As above, does anyone have any links to a UK stockist? I’ve only managed to churn up one result in the US, but postage is about the same as the product! Are there any alternatives in current range that match? It’s only for minor wear around seatbelt area on seat and bolsters, not for complete...

    Boot soft close failure-Fixed

    Hello, Just a quick update and another question! A new mechanism finally arrived from BMW. 5 wires re-connected, boot light working fine. Closed boot, vehicle latches and soft close works, opens fine!! As expected from a new part I guess. However, one issue I now have, and that is it won’t...

    What have you done to your E89 today

    Thanks, that’s good to know! So in this photo here, the white piece fits in the dedicated mount point? The company have sent out the missing parts, but I prefer this option to be honest.

    Boot soft close failure-Fixed

    Hi, I think I’m going to carry out this repair. Quick question, if I wanted to extend the wires slightly to give a little more flexibility, which type of wire do I need to obtain? Has anyone here done this? I’ve read on another forum about it being 0.25mm flexible wire perhaps?

    What have you done to your E89 today

    Well, what a nightmare morning! New wind deflector arrived from BMW (crazy price for what it is). Put the roof down to fit, no problems. Putting roof back up, didn’t complete its cycle and soft close mechanism just kept triggering on off. By sheer dumb luck I managed to get the roof to...

    What have you done to your E89 today

    When I purchased the car, I decided to swap the run flats for Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6. Ever since, I’ve been anxious about not having a spare, so purchased a space saver from The Wheel Shop. Arrived today, minus the storage bag and z4 jack pad adapter! Very annoying!

    Bought two of these bags from Amazon to fit on shelf for a bit more storage for odds and sods. Good quality, Velcro strips on base and rear hold them firmly in place. Got ice scraper, small tyre compressor, boost pack etc in them. Happy for the £12 I paid for the two.

    whats high mileage on a E89?

    I bought my 2010 23i in October with 163,000 miles. Same owner for last 12 years who commuted between Rhyl and Wrexham daily. Well maintained, serviced regularly. Plan to do the same so hopefully many more miles to enjoy.

    What have you done to your E89 today

    Bit the bullet and ordered a new wind deflector from BMW. The headrest meshes and brackets are in place, annoyingly the previous owner sold the centre one prior to me purchasing. EBay searches for a used one, breakers and forum classifieds proved fruitless, so took advantage of a 20% off...

    Just making use of the stars aligning (afternoon off/great weather). Filled it up with V-Power and enjoyed a great day up to St.Andrews, back down to Stirling then home.
